What 𝕡 means
It is a blackboard-bold p; the formula gives it meaning.
Blackboard bold, also called double-struck, began as a way to make chalked letters stand out when bold chalk was unavailable. Mathematical books later used the style, alongside plain or bold capitals, for selected notation.
Uppercase ℙ can denote the set of prime numbers; read lowercase 𝕡 by the role its formula assigns.
